Hey #booktwitter, let’s try to build a fun community here. Reply and tell me who you are (I probably know already) but I’ll share here and we can all follow each other. 📚🙏
@samatlounge Hi Sam! You're one of my fave people to follow on Twitter so happy to find you here too! I'm Becca, tech and science journalist. Wrote a (non-fic) book called Screen Time in 2021. Working on more non-fic ideas now and kickstarting a long-term dream to write the 1st draft of a fiction idea thanks to #Nanowrimo Here's more about me: beccacaddy.com
@beccacaddy oh that’s very kind thank you. How is NaNo going?
@samatlounge @beccacaddy NaNoWriMo was the engine that kickstarted my semi autobiographical novel #PhosphateRocks . I found it liberating. No plan, just flow.
@samatlounge Really well thanks! I had a solid plan and it's an idea I've been toying with for a while. I'm aiming for a very rough very messy draft to get it down on the page THEN I will tinker and refine outside of NaNo. I'm not a perfect words on the page person, ever. But more than anything, I'm having so much fun!! I've wanted to take fiction more seriously for a long time but only written short stories before. I just hope this level of enthusiasm continues!
